Week 6 Walking Field Trip

 Even with a shortened week and a sub thrown into the mix, we accomplished A LOT this week!!! Patterns, building, writing, and detective work....so much fun!!!

Everyone made patterns out of their names this week, it was so interesting to see how everyone's turned out!

Using our teamwork skills to help sort shapes by their attributes (we learned that that's a fancy math word for traits-the things that make a something what it is).

After some delays, we finally got around to addressing and sending our friendly letters! Thank you all for getting me those addresses so quickly!
The kiddos loved writing their letters and were very excited to walk to the Post Office to mail them off. They had a lot of questions for the Postal Workers and had a wonderful time:)


















































Mass Time!



We finished our first mystery book!!! They loved predicting their way through the twists and turns and becoming detectives-in the end we had the theory correct and we solved the mystery of the Absent Author (she was totally pulling a "Hannah Montana" and we got to learn the word pseudonym)! While I was gone sick, they were so sweet and told the sub not to read it while I was gone because they didn't want to finish it without me:) 

Morning Tubs-so much STEM work...and then they decided to make the tallest tower they could, they got to about 6 ft because they made it taller than me. There was so much fantastic teamwork-communicating, proposing and accepting new plans and ideas, working together-it made my heart so happy!!!





























When my arms were officially not long enough to help them out, they had to enlist the help of Mr. Veit!

 What a wonderful first day! They were so excited for everything we did, listened well, and were so kind to one another!!! We talked about first day jitters and what makes us feel better when we are nervous-then we made some "Jitter Juice" to cheers getting over our First Day Jitters!! It took awhile but we finally got our desks and supplies organized, started to learn our rules and routines, and enjoyed cheese pizza and recess- we are officially ready to enjoy our Second Day of Second Grade!                           Everyone found the classroom ok and were ready for Pledge and Prayer right away! Some Playdough Fun while Ms. Massman got attendance completed... A quick round of "Stand Up If..." to get to know one another....we have a lot of readers, bike riders, and candy lovers...

 I cannot even begin to explain all of the fun and excitement that happened this Catholic Schools Week so hopefully the photos can speak for themselves :)                                                        Practicing our cursive in shaving cream! Time for Mass :) Group 2 Won the Music Award at the Praise Assembly for January!!!! So many fun assemblies this week-Prayer, Pep, a Magician, and Volleyball! Unhealthy Snack Day Happy Birthday, Joelle! I told them to highlight this when we were doing our Religion Books because in the future if they feel like they are ready to Marry someone, they should see if they can answer yes to this about the other person...if they can then they are probably ready to get married :) They said that I needed to make sure that I highlighted it and remembered it too, these little matchmakers...
